Washing your Ride...
At least East Coast members----Is anyone else besides me starting to get frustrated with washing your car and within a few hours its covered in lime green dust? UGH, just feels like a waste of time and effort to try and keep it clean. I have a SIM with black rally stripes or should I said lime green and black rally stripes.

Amen, I do the same thing. Just remember to use a new duster on an old car first to avoid the parafin streaks. I have had mine since I had my bright red 87.

Ye I was really getting tired of washing my car. It's always rains the next day or my neighbors cut their grass and get leaves on my car. So yesterday I washed and put it in the garage. Dont know how long I'll keep her as a garage queen but for now it looks good .
